Popsel Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Hi, does anyone have any idea how to add swing after a quantized MIDI recording at the MZ-X500 ? Swing means to move every second MIDI note by a defined value (usually in %). It would be too tedious to make all adjustments manually for each note in the event editor.

Brad Saucier Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Unfortunately the pattern sequencer does not have a swing or groove function for quantizing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a workaround, I would then work on parts that should swing, e.g. HiHat, just record a measure or two and then quantize. Then move every 2nd note in the event editor in one direction by a certain amount. This is possible by increasing the ticks of every 2nd note position by a factor. Now you can play the result. If it meets expectations, the processed source area (1 or 2 bars) can be copied as often as required until the desired total length is reached.
